Last Friday's unfinished match, between L. Parbury and A. H. George and W. P. Roberts and Vv. S. Dawson, in the semi-final round of the men's doubles championship, was replayed on the Country Club's courts on Saturday afternoon and resulted in a victory for Roberts and Dawson by three sets to one—4-6, 9-7, 6-1, 6-3. Roberts played a very consistent game throughout the match and his able volleying was a great factor in his side's success. Dawson took considerably longer to settle down, but gave his partner excellent support in the later stages, particularly inj the last two sets. Par-bury was seen at his best in the opening set, which he and George won principally on service and the former's net play. George tired as the match progressed amd had difficulty in dealing efficiently with his opponents' lobs.
